Note from Louisa Murray, Lady Stormont, to Mary Hamilton (HAM/1/18/50)
Note from Louisa Murray, Lady Stormont, to Mary Hamilton, relating to the illness of Prince Alfred. Stormont had met Dr Turton the previous day who gave her the news on the prince. She asks Hamilton to write to her with news on whether he is likely to recover. Stormont believes that 'children go through so much some times that I think that as long as they are alive one may hope'. She asks how the Queen bears the 'constant anxiety' she must be in.
